Abstract: Existing video data compression algorithms exploit the fact that the DCT
coefficients in the neighbouring blocks are sometimes similar to those in the current
block. This means that if the blocks contain completely different coefficients, the
prediction will not work. 
     Apparatus for coding video data is disclosed in which element in a prediction
matrix is set to an initial prediction value. In the prediction matrix, a smoothing transform
is applied to the values along the rows and then along the columns, or vice versa, to
obtain interpolated values. The prediction value is reset to the to the interpolated value
and the difference between the reset prediction values and corresponding received pixel
values is calculated to produce a residual prediction matrix containing the prediction
residuals. A discrete cosine transform is performed on the prediction residuals to obtain
elements of a compressed video data matrix. 
     The processor means is preferably arranged iteratively to calculate the reset
prediction value used to calculate the prediction residual by repeating steps b) and c).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système par ordinateur de reconnaissance de catégorie de geste et d'entraînement. En général un geste est un déplacement, initié par la main ou le corps, d'un dispositif d'orientation de curseur pour souligner une configuration particulière dans des directions particulières à des moments particuliers. La présente invention permet à un système informatique de recevoir des données d'entrée provenant d'un utilisateur sous la forme de données de gestes obtenues au moyen du dispositif d'orientation de curseur. Dans un mode de réalisation, on utilise un dispositif de souris, mais la présente invention est également appropriée pour une utilisation avec d'autres dispositifs d'orientation de curseur (par exemple une boule roulante, un coussinet tactile, un marqueur électronique, etc.). Dans un mode de réalisation, on reçoit une donnée de geste en appuyant sur une touche du clavier puis en déplaçant la souris (le bouton de la souris restant enfoncé) pour représenter le geste. Les données de position de la souris et les horodateurs sont enregistrés. La présente invention permet alors de déterminer un vecteur caractéristique multidimensionnel sur la base des données de gestes. Le vecteur caractéristique passe alors dans un moteur de reconnaissance de catégorie de geste qui, dans une configuration, fait appel à un réseau neuronal à fonction de base radiale pour associer le vecteur caractéristique à une catégorie de geste préexistante. Après leur identification, un ensemble de commandes d'utilisateur associées à la catégorie de geste est appliqué au système informatique. Les commandes d'utilisateur peuvent provenir d'un procédé automatique qui extrait des commandes associées aux éléments du menu d'un programme d'application particulier. La présente invention permet également à un utilisateur de s'entraîner, de sorte que les gestes définis par l'utilisateur et les commandes de l'ordinateur associées puissent être programmés dans le système informatique.
